    Heinz Ketchup is returning to Fenway

    Real Ketchup is the best news of the offseason I'm shocked that this gem hasn't made it to the thread. I cackled when I saw it. Raise it!

    Offseason rumors

    How to fix the offseason this week: Trade Duran to the Padres for Snelling, Lesko or Thorpe Sign Duvall for 1 year at like 8 mil Trade Jansen to Dodgers for pitching depth and cash Sign Montgomery for 5/140 with an opt out after 3 years This solves your roster problems now and gives you the...

    Yea, now I'm sad. Thanks a lot, Yaz! haha

    What does Red Sox starting pitching look like in 2024?

    Completely fair, however the difference between Verdugo and Gilbert's arbitration cost will be around 4.3 mil according to Matt Swartz. I don't know where they will find another high contact gold glove caliber right fielder at that price.

    What does Red Sox starting pitching look like in 2024?

    I think the Mariners' recent moves could be setting up a very good match for the Sox to make a deal for one of their starters. They just traded Kelenic/Suarez and will let Teoscar walk because they want to be more contact focused on their offense. It also doesn't sound like they have a lot of...

    Red Sox Rumors - Just Kidding

    I've been dreaming of Edward Cabrera since these rumors started up. I have no problem sending Rafaella and Matthew Lugo for Cabrera and Miguel Rojas. I would also throw in Dalbec or Duran. It would make sense for them to give Dalbec a look. I would be fascinated to see how far off that deal...

    What does 2023 look like?

    It would be close. Mayer may need a chunk of the 2025 season after Adames becomes a FA but you figure that out when it happens. The 3 players coming back will just about equal how much Xander cost this past year. Your Outfield situation is set for 2023, your SS is set for 2 more years and you...

    What does 2023 look like?

    I would hope it wouldn't take Yorke to get the deal done, but I know how valuable Adames is. I did like that Suter was from Harvard. Reminded me a bit of Craig Breslow and even a guy who could come back to coach in the future. If the deal only takes Houck, Duran, Seabold or Winckowski then...

    What does 2023 look like?

    I'm very much preparing myself for Xander to go to Philly in the next couple of weeks and the FO to continue to say how they tried their hardest to retain Xander blah blah blah. I've been trying to explore what a SS replacement could look like in trade if Bloom doesn't go get one of the...

    Red Sox sign James Paxton (old thread)

    According to Spotrac, Sale has a player opt out after the 2022 season.

    Red Sox sign James Paxton (old thread)

    This doesn't preclude another starting pitcher acquisition. I think it's obvious that this isn't the E-Rod replacement. This is Eovaldi/Sale insurance for 2023-2024 with a "mid season acquisition" boost to the staff that they don't need to worry about acquiring for 2022. Best case scenario-...

    The 2022 Rotation

    Loved reading through this thread. I've been thinking about the rotation all morning and the current FA class. With next year's FA class looking significantly weaker and knowing that Eovaldi will be gone after 2022 and don't forget Sale's opt out, I think paying up now for a clear #2-#3 starter...

    Who should start for this team in 2021?

    Eddie Rosario placed on waivers. Anyone interested in him? He'll be 10-12 mil in his last year of arb. I feel like Cora would be a good influence on him and he's a very consistent bat. I've been reading that Benny probably can't be more than a below average to average CF at this stage but if he...

    Let's get crazy (risky acquisitions and offseason plans)

    I'm convinced that Theo wants to move Schwarber. With Happ's ability to play outfield or anywhere for that matter and Schwarber's ability to well...not do that. An AL team would love his bat as a DH. Imagine Bradley playing next to Heyward in an outfield. You know Theo dreams about it.

    Let's get crazy (risky acquisitions and offseason plans)

    I saw a report or two from secondary/tertiary news sources about the Theo brain trust being very interested in Andrew Benintendi. It makes all the sense in the world seeing that they wanted him 9th in the 2015 draft but had to "settle on" Happ instead. Benintendi is my favorite player currently...
